I'm Tara, a full stack designer currently pursuing a degree in Digital Experience and Interaction Design with a specialization in Animation and Game Design. I bring 9 years of customer service experience across Australia and Hong Kong, which has taught me to thrive under pressure, adapt quickly to new challenges, and keep user needs at the center of every decision. I’m eager to apply my blend of design craft and customer-centric mindset in a full-time role where I can contribute to an innovative and dynamic company, bridging creative work with practical, hospitality-aware workflows.
